I'm posting these somewhat chronologically to show you what my schedule has been looking like. It's been quite chaotic and lovely.
Bangkok/Royal Palace
So the second day at Bangkok, they took us to the Royal Palace that the King used to live in [I think he lives somewhere else right now] but the place is surrounded by several different temples.
The background of this blog is a picture I took of the Palace.
The city of Bangkok from outside our hotel. I like the massage sign. We stayed in Bangkok for three days, then left for the resort by the countryside.
I think this one had Cambodian/Laos influence. The tour guide was kinda hard to understand. D:
I think this was called Wat Suoy - meaning Beautiful Temple.
The group! Severely dominated by the females.
We were already bonding :)
I call these albino watermelon and sea urchin. Thai people call them dragonfruit and rambutan.
The nature walk after leaving Bangkok and heading for the resort. More like mud trek seeing as how it rained up a storm the night before. Therefore - leeches. But it was beautiful!
Part of the resort. They had small lakes (ponds?) with fish and gazebos. We stayed here for a week focusing on group process and four hours of Thai O_o
After a week at the resort, I'm at the university now, living with a Thai roommate. I'm headed off to spend four days at another village/railroad community so I need to sleep. Check out the rest of my pictures on Facebook!
"Adventure is out there!" That's all I could think about even though I know this probably isn't nearly as adventurous as I'm making it in my mind, haha. Glad to see you're feeling better and having a great time :] LOVE your blog btw! I've added it to my favorites bar so I'll be checking regularly :] Love and miss you, dahling! Be safe!
